Lexie Mulkey Poems

Oh, why do you not stop?
You keep on and on with your drip drop.
You make me miserable with your beat.
It's like I'll never stop this dispare.
...

Im my mind it feels as though I am running, running just to be as near to your side as possible.
Everytime it feels like I've made an inch closer to you, I feel your current dragging me back to start.
So I keep on running to be near.
...

I fade into the shadows.
Unnoticed by all around me.
I'm a puddle of mucky water
You step on me so regular.
...

Why am I convicted on the holy grounds
But in the flesh I feel nothing.
Why don't I stand strong when I am on the battlefield
But when I'm in the holy place I am like a rock standing firm in the ground.
...

I become one with you.
You no human.
You no animal.
You not even really an object
...

It twirls arond, zigg-zagging her and there.
To this corner, than over there.
It moves to where none can tell what it is.
...

Your a betrayer,
Your a heartbreaker,
Your a lover,
Your a comforter,
...

Am I alone in this world full of doubt, destruction, and no life?
The pity it is since you're not here.

The only thing one can do when their alone in the world of sorrow,
...

I call you my friend, but truthfully you my worst enemy.
You try to put yourself above me and others.

I've tried and tried to put your anger aside
...

Why should I show respect for a man that shows me none?
Why should I follow your codes when they have no meaning to me?
Respect after all is something we must earn,
And as far as my eyes can see you deserve nothing.
